A ONE-WOMAN PLAY PORTRAYING

THE LIFE OF DOROTHY DAY

with Sarah Melici as Dorothy Day (and others)

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

7:30-8:30 pm

Unitarian Society of Hartford* 50 Bloomfield Ave* Hartford, CT

For over 50 years of her life, Dorothy Day served the poor in New York City. With Peter Maurin, she founded The Catholic Worker Newspaper, out of which grew The Catholic Worker Movement that challenged its members to work for peace and justice while standing in solidarity with the poor. When Dorothy Day died in 1980 at the age of 83, it was observed, “she was the most influential, interesting, significant figure in the history of American Catholicism.”

Please join us in celebrating her life, her message of love, and her vision of a just and equitable world.
